A TikTok ban would be unconstitutional and the legislation could open the doors for even more violations of free speech. You can write your lawmakers and take action here: http://dontbantiktok.com

US politicians are trying to ban TikTok! But censoring TikTok won’t address valid privacy and security concerns. All it will do is reinforce xenophobic tropes and silence millions of people

@team Writing to your lawmakers isn't going to do anything - they have their mind set, and getting a few constituents sending a message won't matter to them.

The real thing that matters is showing people how to get around these digital privacy violations and encouraging / organizing direct action, i.e. via working with those you know to organize disruptive protests and the like locally.

Unconstitutional? How so?
